Due Diligence

We assist lenders in carrying out investigation of any legal risk associated with the rights and obligations of the borrower. Issues may typically involve existence of the company, borrowing powers of the company, ownership of assets offered as collateral, risk of invalidation of the collateral, compliance with anti-money laundering laws, sanctions related laws that affects borrowing, environmental liabilities, compliance with banking regulations, etc.

Apart from general due diligence, we assist lenders in due diligences structured in a form of Know your customer (KYC). In this type of due diligence, we assist our clients to verify the identity of its clients and to verify their probity and integrity. In know your customer due diligences, we focus on ensuring that the borrower is not involved in thefts, financial fraud, money laundering and terrorist financing.
